“Yes, please!” Lily said, clapping her hands. “Uncle George said he has something exciting in his shop to show me.”

“I dread to think,” Severus muttered under his breath, and Harry sent him a sideways smirk.

“You’re going to be Santa, Daddy?” Lily asked, frowning. Harry bit back a laugh at the gravy smeared across her cheek. “Have you got a costume?”

Severus turned to him as well, eyes glittering. “I believe I’d like to see that.”
